Two meetings scheduled to gather public input on three, separate downtown Ann Arbor development projects.

ENP Associates have developed several options for possible zoning changes for three downtown Ann Arbor properties. The firm is presently seeking feedback from the community on possible reductions to the size of developments at three separate locations downtown:

The Ann Street parking lot next to City Hall

a parking lot on Huron between Sloan Plaza and the Campus Inn

DTE building at William, Main, and Packard.

Megan Masson-Minock is a planner with ENP and Associates. She says it's important to gather feedback that goes well beyond whether or not the community likes the development plans.. adding that several options were created based on meetings with the community last month about what type of developments it wants to see on the edge of downtown.
